Implications of protecting the QCD axion in the dual description
Abstract The QCD axion can be formulated in a dual description as a massive 2-form field. In this picture, the QCD axion quality problem translates into the question if there are additional 3-forms coupled to the axion other than the QCD 3-form that emerges at low energy. If such forms exist, the qu...
